After a lot of thought I finally decided that I would get back into Cossie ownership and picked up my "new" 3dr yesterday, my took some quick pics today inbetween the rain showers so they're not the greatest but I thought I'd put them up anyway.

Its stage 3 at the mo and the plan was/is to put the sapph running gear into it but after driving it home and it being so nice and relatively civilised compared to the sapph I'm not so sure now lol.

Anyway, here's the pics, I want to take some better ones when the weather cheers up lol.













Hope you like!

 

Stunning mate

 

You know my thoughts, But hey I will say it again Stunning Stunning!!!!!!!!!!

After all the bad luck you have been through this year a well deserved bit of luck to get your hands on a stunning 3dr & in no doubt will soon be one of the best on the forum if not already with your attension to detail!!

I for one can not wait to see what you have planned my friend Loving the 500 Bumper!

Tarren

 

get some power up it!

 

Looks lovely.

 

Very nice mate.

Black ones are faster :0)

 

Sure thats the last thing on Karls mind!

Stage 3 Makes a perfect road car leave it alone mate and enjoy it

Tarren

 

Stunning mate really is,you just enjoy stage 3 for bit,then you can always get serious and transplant your saphs running gear in when you get a little bored of stage 3 power.

 

not when you had a 500bhp one it dosent lol

 

I'm sure when you decide to up the power a few phone calls will have you plenty of hands to help. It'll be done over a weekend easy.
Looks nice.

 

Personally I think you should take it a step further than the saff set up

 

Very nice.. Is that davey from Scotland old one..

 

It sure is max , Karl get th big engine in it mate it's crying out for a proper set up

 

Sure Karl said on FB that the motors coming out and the others going in - this is such a nice car and full of the basic toy's you need so a far few quid already saved

 

thats a stunner karl ,im looking forward to seeing it develop mate

 

Thanks for the comments, yeah, it is Davies old one, I didn't know that until Brammer told me, it just seemed a really nice place to start with a really nice spec to begin with,

Some interior and underbonnet pics that the dealer who was selling it sent to me...



















And the 2 box files full of reciepts that came with it, every MOT since it's first one in 1990 etc



Like I say, they aren't the greatest pics and I will take my own at some point but just thought I'd share them anyway

 

Looks very nice . Same wheels as mine only mine are black .

Whats the going rate for a 3 door now

 

Very nice,and the best shade too...

 

Bloody nice that Karl. Seen it when Davey had it. Proper mint..

 

Lovely motor...will be up to Karl's spec in no time.

 

As I said on fb stunning mate, I'd keep it stage 3 just now then when the times right get that big bhp lump in there!

 

Perfect Karl just perfect !

If it was me I'd standard tanks under the bonnet keep it stage 3 and just enjoy it mate don't make another your scared to take out the garage

 

Moonstone is better

But i suppose a Black one is better than a Taxi lol

Pleased for you mate

Steve

 

Lovely mate, glad you've found a good one, enjoy.

PS, are you at Donington yet Karl?

 

Very nice mate. Car looks superb

 

Thats stunning congrats on getting another cossie.Its even got the original tyre on the spare. Was there that many registered on an E reg?

 

Anything from 8-20k they are all over the place!

 

Cheers folks, on the way now Pete, just stopped at maccies lol

 

Very nice Karl,glad to see you in a cossie again

 

Looks lovely Karl! Health to enjoy

 

stunning car mate, you got a good replacement thats for sure

 

Ive got 12/13k just sitting in the garage then

 

FACT!

Looks very tidy and on an E Reg too!
Is that a genuine RS500 front bumper?
Rich

 

Looks lovely
Good luck with it

 

Very nice ,not seen it at any shows

 

I know a couple of panel beaters if theres any paintless dent removal needed.
If you haven't got a mop to perfect the paint finish give us a shout.
If it needs any paint I know local painters who are awesome. Get your running gear in it.

 

Looks spot on in black with the black wheels

 

I can't mutiquote posts on my phone lol but thanks for the comments, yes, original 500 bumper

It spent a time in Scotland which is probably why you've not seen it mate.

Karl

 

Cheers mate, there's one or two bits that need doing but nothing much and no rush tbh

 

How long before it's sporting an RS500 upper and lower spoiler?
